mmmm....
imo, for your popping
FIRST OFF, I think you should change the music you practice too. I'm not saying you can't dance to that, but you should practice with a song with a distinct constant beat. A good song to practice to would be Zapp & Roger- More Bounce to the Ounce. Practice hitting to the claps.
I think you should work more on your dimestops
from what I can see, they don't have a clean stop
and you need to slow down some of the stuff you have
for your robot in particular, you need more isolations, meaning you need to move things more at one at a time, and less parts involved in it (see Tiger's sequencing tutorial for robots on youtube).
and your waving, both arm and body waving, I think you should practice those and clean up. When practicing your waving, don't just toss it out, focus on every little detail of the wave in every arm***** segments.
that's all I can think of at the moment
Overall: just clean up alot of the stuff you have, don't just freestyle, but focus on each style individually and clean those up

you posted this in the wrong forum..mod shud move it soon but anyway

k to translate the drunken words of eyeboog....


thats a pretty decent start for two weeks..welcome =D
no it dusnt really matter what music you dance to when it comes to getting down..but when ur learning the FOUNDATIONS its best to practice to slower music and/or music with a distinct KICK(1) and SNARE(2) ..having drums in the back im sure you know what i mean...but yes dancing to FUNK music is a good start because popping is native to funk

make sure ur movements are clean..your botting...all ur movements should be ISOLATED..keyword get that stuck into your head!!!..with isolation you must have patience..practice slowly and take ur time...till you feel COMFORTABLE with those movements
start by just moving one joint at a time and slowly combine two joints together and move them at the same time and RATE..which is what makes it look smooth.

your waving must be ISOLATED as well..for now when you do your bodywaves keep your shoulders at the same level dont drop it so you wont lose the isolation that easily....
armwave: FINGERS > KNUCKLES > WRIST > ROLLING ELBOW > SHOULDER > CHEST/HEAD > then repeat other side but in opposite order

bodywave: HEAD > CHEST > STOMACH > HIPS > LEGS etc

practice bring up each point to the music every say...2 counts..you want to develop MUSCLE MEMORY

make sure ur ON BEAT..get into the habit of staying on beat and always LISTEN to whats going inside your ears and dont let it out absorb it. =)
I like how u try and make ur movements work with the sound effects in that song dont lose that!!!...ur movements should always make sense to the music otherwise ur dance is useless!

keep going good luck!! practice yo...btw i didnt watch whole video..too choppy
for pc
